Yuna Kim assessment
Hi Kvng, I know that you're not very active in editing articles about figure skating, but you seem like a helpful person, and to be honest, we're getting a litte desperate now. Currently, there's an A-class assessment at WikiProject Figure Skating/Assessment/Yuna Kim. We have two reviewers and we need a third. Would you mind going over there and consider reviewing the bio? We'd actually like to have someone who, while they may not be knowledgeable about the sport, knows their WP editing stuff. I saw your post at the Figure Skating WikiProject talk page and thought you'd be a good person to ask. Please! ;) Best, Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 18:20, 25 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Kvng, would you mind responding to this query, please? If you can't, that's okay; I would just like a response. If you can't, could you recommend someone who could. Thanks. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 03:47, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

Random access memory
I'm curious why you reverted an edit I made on April 25 on the Random access memory article. I named some references and eliminated duplicate text. Is there a reason you think we need the text "While it offered higher speeds than magnetic-core memory, bipolar DRAM could not compete with the lower price of the then dominant magnetic-core memory. " twice? Including duplicate sentences seems sloppy, not encyclopedic. Jonjames1986 (talk) 13:30, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from Propagandalf21 (09:07, 1 July 2024)
Hello mentor! As a writer, I am mentioned in wikipedia but I would like to add some references. Is is allowed to add elements about me on wikipedia? --Propagandalf21 (talk) 09:07, 1 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, direct editing an article about yourself is largely discouraged, see WP:COI and WP:AUTOBIO. If you propose some changes on the talk page of the article in question, I can help make the changes, see WP:EDITREQ. ~Kvng (talk) 13:35, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

Your edits on NTSC
While I did not revert your edits in NTSC, I believe the reversions were proper. Your edits appeared to only change some links, and the link text you used resulted in redirects. The link texts that existed/now exist properly match the Wiki article titles. Myndex talk  05:42, 14 July 2024 (UTC)


 * To add: I see your initial edit summary was "unpipe links via script" You may want to examine your script, as the end result was that properly formatted direct links to Wiki article titles (with a pipe connecting the inline article text when different) became re-directs, which is undesirable. Thank you for reading.  Myndex  talk  04:31, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
 * @Myndex, redirects are not a problem, see WP:NOTBROKEN. Piped links can create a maintenance issue and WP:ASTONISH. The script I'm using is User:Nardog/Unpipe. If you have general issues with this clean, consider posting something at the associated talk page there. Sometimes I do additional work manually on links after running the script so we can't blame the script for all offenses. In any case, I won't argue or revert as I don't consider this a big issue. ~Kvng (talk) 21:38, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi Kvng, thank you I understand. I was only relating why I assume the other editor did the reverts (it was not me). What you say does make sense, I don’t hold a strong position either way, though I was under the impression that redirects and disambiguation pages were something to avoid? Perhaps my misunderstanding, is it just disambiguation to be avoided and not redirects then? Thank you for clarifying.  Myndex  talk  04:43, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
 * And to add: one reason that redirects can be a problem in articles relating to color science is the mass of terminology that looks/sounds very similar despite having different meanings, and the potential for redirects to go to an inappropriate article. To be clear I am not saying that was happening in the instant case, just a general concern. Myndex  talk  04:45, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

Question from OluJay201 (12:01, 17 July 2024)
Hi,

It's been years since I last logged in, had to create a new account today.

In your own opinion, what has changed the most about editing Wikipedia? Also, for how long have you been an active editor?

OluJay --OluJay201 (talk) 12:01, 17 July 2024 (UTC)


 * @OluJay201, welcome back! I've been active since 2008. Biggest change is the construction of a gauntlet for new articles. Unless you have good persistence and experience, its more fun to improve existing articles. ~Kvng (talk) 14:39, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
